Decca was the nickname of Jessica Mitford who wrote Hons and Rebels, 1960:
“A thirteen-year-old is a kaleidoscope of different personalities, if not in most ways a mere figment of her own imagination. At that age, what and who you are depends largely on what book you happen to be reading at the moment.”
Decca is a patchwork knit jerkin created using reworked knitwear. Oversized, boxy shape with open side seams. This jerkin is snuggly and warm and can be worn on its own or over almost everything. Made using various repurposed knitwear all in 100% wool.
This jerkin is created using vintage and second knitwear.
